Special attention ｜ After the ship replace the shipowner/management company, these situations need to be familiar with the new crew as soon as possible!

The West Pi Club prompts that when the ship replace ownership and/or management company, new crew members and managers may take a long time to be fully familiar with the ship. As soon as the staff on board board the ship, they should start to be familiar with the ship's situation and their respective responsibilities, and this work must be completed before the ship navigation.

Captain Pik Ki Ki Yung pointed out that the ISM rules require all crew to be familiar with the ship before sailing.

ISM Rules 6.3: The company should establish procedures to ensure that new employment and transfer personnel involved in safety and environmental protection are appropriately familiar with their responsibilities. Anyone who needs to be made before sailing shall be indicated and issued in the form of documents.

Captain Pik Ki Yung said that in order to sail the ship safely, you need to prepare for the PSC inspection that may be performed at the first port. The following are the basic areas that crew needs to be familiar with:
